I would hope ignorance wouldn't blind you in seeing the true potential in any animal. I know the filly will make an incredible eventer, and by Eventer I mean 3 day Eventing; Dressage, Stadium Jumping, and Cross-Country. Watching her play at 6 months old, I, as a trainer and rider, see that she has the correct angles and movement to become a jumper and dressage horse. The fact that she is half Clydesdale means she has the bone structure to last in the cross-country field. I have raised many different kinds of warmbloods and sport horses and do know how most of them mature. If you had the luxury of owning an Appaloosa, you would know that they are very versatile and are known for their ability to jump and have great endurance. I have trained both of her parents and many siblings, ALL of which have incredible potential for anything. It is irritating to hear people are so Naive to see that with correct breeding and training, ANY HORSE can become ANYTHING. She has the heart of a champion and SHE would prove it if you met her.

Nothing in my ad suggest that she is Homozygous. As a few spot she has an 80% chance of throwing color if bred correctly.

The statement that she is a few spot to appy people means she is homogzygous. She is not truly a few spot.

I know appies some what (I have two of them). Though I have not seen any photos of your horse (your web site is not the most user friendly and none are posted here) it is pretty impossible to guess at a young age what a horse will do well at, even less so what is it really a grade horse so who knows if it bred true to what either parent was able to accomplish.
